Testo Freight - Original Cast: Starlight Express

Testo della canzone Freight (Original Cast: Starlight Express), tratta dall'album Starlight Express

Freight is great
Freight is great
We carry weight 'cause we are freight
And freight is great
We never make a fuss
We got the goods on us
We take the loads from off the roads
And freight is great
Couldn't stand gravel and sand
Being ignored, no-one aboard
Nobody complaining, we were late again
I should hate carrying freight, nobody living in me
Got to be a living, breathing passenger train
Freight is great
Freight is great
Freight (couldn't stand gravel and sand, being ignored, no-one aboard)
Is great (nobody complaining, "we were late again")
We carry weight (I should hate carrying freight, nobody living in me)
And freight is great (got to be a living, breathing passenger train)
It's mommas and poppas, it's commerce and hoppers
It's daughters and sons, it's quarters and tons
They get in your hair, it's the fun of the fare
Freight, folks, tares, fares
Passengers, commuters and mail
Trees and meat, gravel and shale
Are great, are great, are great, are great, are great
I'm Rocky, there's lots like me
I'm Rocky two
I'm Rocky three
The only time we get sick inside is when some bum hitches a ride
We wait for a sharp corner to come
And open the door, bye-bye, bum
Freight is great
Flattop, who you looking at?
Yeah, there's bricks, what's wrong with that?
No, you're right, they don't all match
Yeah, they're heavy, here, catch
Freight is great
Come on, Dustin
I'm the big hopper, I'm not a box
Yeah, your head is full of rocks
They ain't rocks, they're aggregates and aggregates are really great
Aggregates are really great
Aggregates never complain
Bricks and mortar are thicker than water
It's great to be an aggregate train
At the back, on every piece of track
I'm right behind you
Can I be of help at all?
Then simply call CB
Hello, CB (hello)
The red caboose would like to be of use
To every truck and show the world that
Freight is great
Freight is great
Freight (couldn't stand gravel and sand, being ignored, no-one aboard)
Is great (nobody complaining, "we were late again")
We carry weight (I should hate carrying freight, nobody living in me)
And freight is great (got to be a living, breathing passenger train)
It's mommas and poppas, it's commerce and hoppers
It's daughters and sons, it's quarters and tons
They get in your hair, it's the fun of the fare
Freight, folks, tares, fares
Passengers, commuters and mail
Trees and meat, gravel and shale
On the rails, on the rails, on the rails, on the rails
Are great, are great, are great, are great, are great
Are great, are great, are great, are great
